We present a novel detailed placement technique that accounts for systematic through-pitch variations to reduce leakage. Leakage depends nearly exponentially on linewidth (gate le...
Abstract--Polynomial approximation is a very general technique for the evaluation of a wide class of numerical functions of one variable. This article details an architecture gener...
Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) has become a dominant reliability concern for nanoscale PMOS transistors. In this paper, we propose variable-latency adder (VL-adder) ...
In a traditional Network-on-Chip (NoC), latency and power dissipation increase with system size due to its inherent multi-hop communications. The performance of NoC communication ...

It is often desirable to change the logic and/or the connections within an FPGA design on-the-fly without the benefit of a workstation or vendor CAD software. This paper presents ...
We propose several algorithms and provide some related results that make it possible to implement decimal floating-point arithmetic on a processor that does not have decimal opera...
Reliability and process variability are serious issues for FPGAs in the future. Fortunately FPGAs have the ability to reconfigure in the field and at runtime, thus providing oppor...

This paper examines the opportunity of using compression for accelerating the (re)configuration of FPGA devices, focusing on the choice of compression algorithms, and their hardwa...
